Musings after Movement class this am: The Zest of life is not in the known, but rather in the doorway to the unknown. We seem to be more alive when we are living at our true edge. In movement, for instance, whether it is a 90 year old grandma standing up for the first time after a stroke, or the elite gymnast struggling to hold the iron cross for 1 minute it is we who must not judge the act , but rather see the edge being met. For when both of these individuals do their best, on any given day, both find themselves in Ancient Halls celebrating the accomplishment of pushing past former barriers and discovering a new land that stretches into infinity. There is no getting there, there is only this, and once we understand this we ease into trying to get somewhere and recognize that it is only when we sit at the edge of our ability, and our known, do we dare discover our eternal being that is one with the expanse. For me, learning is where it is at.. Stay at the doorway and do not judge the feat that brings you to the threshold. It is only the edge that matters. Much peace

Injury & Pain as Opportunity

These bodies are designed to heal.
When we balance the stressors of living with adequate rest, proper nutrition, and hydration we serve to witness our bodies thrive.
Maladies are not obstacles. Rather, they are opportunities to rediscover where our imbalances reside.
Are we not sleeping enough? Are we not moving enough? Are we eating foods that drain us?
Or are we lost in a storm of stressful thoughts?
Perhaps, these questions seem daunting, but if we pause and use the injury to direct us, we soon learn that it is not an enemy, bur rather a friend pointing us to our mastery.
Fret not. Life is guiding.
Medicines of breath, movement, rest, and meditation surround us, and they hold power.
Fret not, you are being led to live a more vibrant life.
​This pain is your friend.

We framed our planks today, in Yoga, and embraced the burn to hold form. A journey in force coupling to align and redesign. The mind wants to retreat, but we can remain as the great witness and enable change to unfold. Carving out a new body, or a new world, takes effort, but it does not have to be a burden. The moment we step into the foundation of Awareness, engaging in the body, and or the world can be done from an entirely different point of view. Our quietness is capable of so much and the sweat upon our skin and the tiredness felt within our muscles is the reminder that we journeyed past the limits of mind and found a way to embrace the uncertainty of form. See you all Tuesday night. I am feeling like a scaffold of handstands is in order. Much peace...

Meditation tonight at 6PM.

We will be investigating the infinite path of negative visualization. Our mind thinks this moment to be unsuitable to be lived. We all know what this rejection feels like.

There is a way out of this insatiable mind trap. There is a way to enter life regardless of circumstance. There is a way to put life and aliveness as the seminal inspiration compared to the standard and endlessly frustrating mode of manipulating the infinite sand castles to feel good.

The stoics and many others, centuries ago, figured this out. It is now our task to pick up these tools and unlock our full humanity. There is a way out of strife and it does not have to do with anything your mind wants you to believe.

Even when the worst thing has fallen upon you, there is something, within, that is yearning to breath and yearning to start anew.

Meditation is a tool, that has been used for millennia to return us to the sane center of our aliveness.

I look forward to seeing you tonight.

Tuesday evening was doozy. Hip flexor strengthening combined with hip extensor strengthening. I am finding a new voice to express in this "New World". Slowly moving away from Asana and more into pose exploration. It is more fitting for my style of Rehab and the Yoga muses seemingly are endorsing this adventure. If you are interested in a more deconstructed style of Yoga, one where we explore the nitty and the gritty to find a truer form, then come and check us out. Next Class Thursday am from 7 am till 8:15 am... I have a feeling we will be targeting ITB and the balance of Internal and External hip rotation through the sequence. Much peace and strength, Anthony and the Gang at Studio Avani...

Another rocking Zoom Yoga Class. We isolated the gluts , quads and hamstrings and investigated their relationship to the basics. When the fundamentals are explored, the more advanced posture naturally reveal themselves.

This reminds me of the famous line from Bruce Lee, (to paraphrase),"I do not fear the man who has 10,000 kicks, but I fear the man who has kicked one kick 10,000 times."

Our style of Yoga is not fancy. It is an exploration of the basics and through this we discover a foundation to move more easily through the flow of life.

We hope to see you on Tuesday night. 6-7pm.

Enjoy your Saturday, Much Peace. Anthony and the Gang at Studio Avani.
